Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp flour
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, milk, chopped onion, egg, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and shape into 12 meatballs.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Brown the meatballs on all sides, about 6-8 minutes. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the flour. Stir for 1 minute to create a roux.
- Slowly add the beef broth while stirring to avoid lumps. Add the soy sauce and dried thyme, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the gravy thickens.
- Return the meatballs to the skillet and coat them in the gravy. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes until the meatballs are fully cooked through.
- Serve the Salisbury steak meatballs hot with the gravy over mashed potatoes or rice.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add sautéed mushrooms to the gravy.
- If you prefer a thicker gravy, add more flour to the roux or let the gravy simmer longer.
- This recipe can be doubled or halved depending on how many servings you need.
